If covering the head was recurrent in each ihram, should kaffarah (atonement or expiation) be repeated [for every incident]?
Answer
It is likely that one kaffarah for each ihram would do.

If someone else cast a shade over you while you are walking, is kaffara obligatory?
Answer
If one cannot get out of the shade, there shall be no kaffara. If you were able to get out, and you did not, even for forestalling a harm, Kaffara is obligatory.
